preface

Two years ago, I accidentally saw Luo Ping's 10,000-acre rapeseed field photos and was deeply attracted. It's just that this seasonal scenery has always been delayed for some reason, and once it is missed, it will be another year. This year, I have really come on several trips at will by flying with my heart. I didn't have too long preparations or too long vacations. I picked a weekend and took a day off just for one attraction and set off!

Day 1 Shanghai-Kunming

After leaving Shanghai, which has been rainy and wet for a long time, I arrived in sunny Kunming at noon and suddenly felt extremely warm.

Because we were going to Luoping the next day, the hotel chose Kunming Yuguang Art Hotel near Kunming Station. The vicinity of Kunming Station is very lively, and there are many choices for accommodation, food and drink.

After packing your luggage, we walked to the nearby Laodian Mountain Village·Yunnan ethnic specialties for lunch. This place is considered to have visited the old place again, and this is the third time we have been here. The familiar environment, the taste is still good, and the price is also very affordable.

Because this was my second time to Kunming, I had been to the Dianchi Lake area, and now it was the cherry blossom season, so I chose to visit Kunming Zoo for half a day. There are also buses near the train station that can take you directly.

The zoo is not large, and the buildings outside can be seen on the edge.

? Although the cherry blossoms in Yuantong Flower Tide are not big, they completely form a cherry blossom tunnel when they are fully open. It's so beautiful! It's just that even on Friday, there are still so many people. I suggest that if you want to take beautiful photos, you should come earlier if your schedule allows you to have fewer people.

Animals here all feel good and know how to pose poses.

Peacock Garden will be cleared after 4 o'clock and no one can enter it. There are many peacocks inside and many beautiful ones.

The zoo can choose to enter and exit from the east gate, so that you can go to Cuihu Park for a walk.

The free park is not special, but its nature is closer to giving surrounding residents a walk and exercise. The difference is that the flowers in Spring City are more colorful.

If you like to eat sweet, sour and spicy flavors, you can go to the Xue 'er pickles near Cuihu Park and try the special fruit pickles. Although the store is small, the business is very good. I didn't buy any strawberries when I arrived late, but green mangoes and pineapples taste good, but the pineapple heart is too hard, so I prefer mangoes.

Huixi Building, located near Cuihu Park, is a must-eat restaurant. The environment and taste are good, but the price is expensive.

Small duck and broken crispy buns are both local specialties and are worth a try ~

Day 2 Kunming-Luo Ping

Walk to Kunming Station before dawn and set off for Luoping.

In addition to the K-shaped train, there are also long-distance buses from Kunming to Luoping. The train frequencies are very few, so it is recommended to purchase them in advance. There are many long-distance buses that depart in shifts.

It is recommended to choose a train when going. Before you get to Luoping, you can see an open rapeseed field and mountains from the right window. Although it will be blocked by tunnels from time to time, it is not easy to capture pictures, but you can feast your eyes.

After arriving at Luoping Station, leave the station and walk downhill to the station on the right hand side of the intersection (next to the long-distance station). There is a bus that can go directly to Luosi Tian. There are taxis and online ride-hailing in the county, which is very convenient.

The bus passed through a long market before reaching Luositian. I wonder if this was Ox Street.

When the car reaches the terminal station, it is Luosi Field. There is a viewing platform at the innermost end, which is safer to see from there. Be careful when looking along the road because you are walking in the driveway. There are also some small observation platforms that belong to villagers and charge two to three yuan, which I personally feel is unnecessary.

The area of Luosi Field is not large but its shape. Unfortunately, the weather today is not very satisfactory. Although there is sun, it is gray. Later, I heard from the owner of the B & B that this was the best weather in recent times. I don't know if it was close to Guizhou, but I felt that it would never be sunny.

Half an hour is enough to watch Luositian. I still choose to take the bus back to the train station. Then I called an online taxi to go to the B & B in Jinji Village.

If you plan to watch the sunset and sunrise in the Jinji Peak Grove, it is recommended to live in Jinji Village opposite the scenic area. The village is full of B & Bs. If you choose the location close to Lingyi Temple, it will be closer to the scenic area. We chose too far inside this time, because the village and the scenic spot are separated by a road, and not everyone can cross the road, so we have to walk a long way to the intersection.

Lingyi Temple is said to be a good place to shoot the sunrise and overlook the Jinji Peak Grove. It costs 10 yuan/person (20 yuan to watch the sunrise in the morning).

Fortunately, I took a sample in advance and found that it would be difficult to walk when it was dark before sunrise. Looking out across the road, the visual effect was average. (On the right side of the mountain is the parking lot, on the left side is the Jinji Village B & Bs, and across the road is the Jinji Peak Cong)

After that, we went to the observation deck of Jinji Peak Cong Scenic Area. After comprehensive consideration, we decided that it would be more convenient to go to the scenic area until the sunrise the next day.

I came at the right time for Women's Day activities on March 8, and women are free of charge these days. In the morning before sunrise, no one cares about the door, and people and cars can enter at will.

As the night approaches, the weather is getting worse and worse, and it drizzles from time to time. So I didn't go shopping carefully about how big the scenic spot was, so I went up and down the observation deck and retreated.

The goose eggs bought by the old lady in the scenic area are quite cost-effective.

Day 3 Luo Ping-Kunming

In the morning, I turn on the flash of my mobile phone and feel the darkness to reach the scenic spot observation deck. There are also vans that are expected to bring tourists from the county town from time to time on the road. You still need to pay attention to safety on the road.

Although it was early, there were not many people on the observation deck. Just looking at the day, they knew that there was no hope of sunrise.

By 8 o'clock, the fog became thicker and thicker, the visibility became lower and lower, and light rain began to float. There was no choice, and the Jinji Peak had to finish work early.

It is a pity that the Kowloon Waterfall has been closed for maintenance so far, which has really made my Luoping tour a lot monotonous. Other surrounding attractions are too far away, so the short day tour time is not enough, and it is inconvenient without self-driving.

When we returned to Kunming, we didn't buy tickets in advance. Long-distance buses took turns, so that we could leave early when the weather was bad and take more photos when the weather was good.

The sun is shining again when I return to Kunming. Take a taxi to Guandu Ancient Town.

The accommodation choice is Kunming Yunnan Residence Boutique B & B in the ancient town. The environment and equipment are good. Compared with Luo Ping's simple B & B, this type is obviously carefully built.

Guandu Ancient Town is not big, not much different from ordinary commercial ancient towns. It does not have much ancient feeling. It is basically enough to walk around for an hour.

Although there is a lot to eat here, there is not much that catches my attention. Finally, I found Yiliang Old Milk Stewed Chicken Feet, which had a good score in the alleys by the ancient town, to barbecue. There is no menu, and the boss will directly recommend it, but don't be afraid of cheating customers. Locals will also come to eat it. The price is very affordable and the taste is good. This baking sheet also reminds me of the grilled tofu in Jianshui Ancient City.

After eating, I continue to stroll around and digest digestion. I feel that I can drop by if I have enough time, but for many ancient towns in Yunnan, the scale is still much inferior, so I don't have to check in specially.

Day 4 Kunming-Shanghai

In the morning, I took a taxi to walk around Kunming Old Street and Pedestrian Street in the city center. This place can be considered a visit again. Because I used to come at night and have been here for several years, I hardly have much impression.

The prices of flowers and plants here are quite cheap. There is also a particularly large flower trading market in Kunming that many tourists choose to visit and buy some for home. I originally wanted not to go and see it this time, but as a foodie, I ended up going to the farmers 'market now ~

Walking to Nanqiang Market happened to be building roads. This street is quite stylish. Lunch is eaten in Yunhaixi Yunnan cuisine here.

Except for the signature steampot chicken with a little water, it's not as delicious as the one stewed at home. Other dishes taste good. Fortunately, the steam pot chicken was ordered as a new product from his family, and it contained lilies. For the first time, he knew whether there was a bitter or sweet variety. He fell in love with it instantly and bought it several times when he went home.

In the afternoon, I went to the farmers 'market where I made me give up the flower market and observed various dishes that I didn't recognize.

There are many vegetables, fruits, cooked food, and snacks. We also bought some fresh ham and dried beef to go home. We especially recommend dried beef rice. We all think it tastes better than ham and the price is much cheaper than Shanghai's. However, I have to say that the stall where I buy ham is short of weight. Although the stall owner of Niuganba does not speak Mandarin well and has some difficulties in communication, he is fully qualified.

Leaving the market, you can take the nearby subway to the airport, which is very convenient.

The brief trip to Yunnan was over, and when I came back, I was ridiculed by relatives and friends just to see cauliflower. Was it necessary to travel so far? But I just have a passion for the beautiful scenery ~
